I was feeling v low in self confidence the other week due to doing really poorly on a piece of coursework, and while waiting for the natural emotional reaction to pass I figured I should do something that would directly make me feel good about my capabilities. Decided to do some boat + precedent sketches, which really cheered me up, and then I got great feedback about them too!

some more recent life drawings in charcoal (feat a little chalk)

a handful of recent life drawings in chalk and copics

A small selection of life drawings done in the last few weeks I'm pleased with! The middle one in watercolours was an unusual 2-hr pose yesterday. I turned up a minute late and probably got the most difficult angle for the face but it was good fun (: I try to do something a little different each time, but my ultimate goal is to work out how to loosen up a bit...

Hello! Is your font available for commercial use? Like is there a purchase license version to use it in merchandising or books? Thanks in advance.

Hi! Thanks for getting in touch. The version available currently is 100% free, including commercial use - though that does come with the caveat that it's not fully made for commercial use, and is therefore missing punctuation and other features that might be expected. If you find that you do need such features, get in touch and I'll see what we can work on.

If it works fine for you however, and you appreciate it and want to send me a donation in support, you can always send me an amount you think is reasonable to my PayPal. Also, please let me know if you do use it so I may see the result! I'd love to see it out there, being a passion project.

I made a font! During a project the other year I decided I hated every free ‘Ancient Greek’ style font available for their many sins - looking like the typeface equivalent of medieval drawings of foreign animals, using Σ for E, being mashed up with rune-style fonts like heorot, having either only a greek charset or only a latin charset… so I thought I’d try making one myself. A font family, in fact: there are 8 total sets, one group monospaced, one group kerned. The 4 styles are: round/regular, heavy, light and ‘engraved’, a 3D-ish effect. You can download them from here

Επίσης, καλοί μου συμπατριώτες, αν έκανα κανένα λάθος κάπου, η κάτι σας ενοχλεί… παρακαλώ πείτε μου!

A little more life drawing from this evening

It's been a while...

So here's a twitter thread about the study I made some art for last year! Maddy was researching children and adolesents' methods of data gathering and taking on advice for her PhD. As part of that, she made a little game in which kids would count or guesstimate how many of each type of alien was on a little planet, and rate their confidence in that decision, every now and then getting advice from a little cosmonaut or on a screen. I was commissioned to make the assets for that! The tricky part was designing a large number of colour schemes that even children who potentially had colour blindness could pick out.

Here's the link to the tweet

Here's the link to the study, called "I know better! Emerging metacognition allows adolescents to ignore false advice"

I've now got final versions up as individual posts and on redbubble! enjoy, everyone

I’ve been doing an illustration recently which I’ve designed so I can make Pride variations of it. I’ll probably be putting them up on redbubble, but I have a couple more to do so I might wait til I’ve got those finished. In order: LGBT+ace flags, trans flag, pan flag and sapphic flag

I haven’t painted anything properly in a while and was feeling bad about it, and the easiest thing to do when that happens is do a redraw! That first one is the first digital drawing I ever did, before I even got a tablet aha, and I initially used it for my myspace background back in the day. Maybe in a few years when I do another revisit I’ll bother with the petals/feathers again

Some UI mockups for Fis Cafe. Slowly working in the blueprint systems for them in Unreal Engine

Had a friend over and she was studying fashion models for a Larp thing and I got distracted and decided to also do a study. Im a Real Artist who uses Proper Art Supplies lolol #pencilsketch #pencildrawing #artistsofinstagram #fashionmodel #fashionsketch https://www.instagram.com/p/BvhuAAplmXo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aya17vmr6s2r

There’s a few-second scene in the new She-Ra series where they plan using little minifigures Bow has made, and they were very cute so I figured I’d try my hand at what they might look like. Made it look like he’d done an amateurish slightly messy paint job. You can download the 3D model to print if you’d like

I made a sculpture last year but finally sorted the low-poly for it. A lot I’d do differently in hindsight technically speaking but I’m still happy with the main design. Hmm it’s in time for valentines I guess

The main furniture for fi’s cafe! Also, you can download [free] the explorable game environment to have a look round on https://eireni.itch.io/fis-cafe . I’ll slowly be updating it to actually be a game and include stuff like @littlesmartart ‘s characters.

I've finally finished up my portfolio piece! Its Fi's Cafe v.3 and I'm v pleased with it. I'll put out a download link so you can walk about it yourself at somepoint! I'm sending out applications this week, wish me luck. I'll be adding more shots later, too

‘hey eireni what are you up to’ ‘my portfolio, im working on it’ (repeat ad infinitum)

The furniture looks as weirdly designed as ever but at least it looks like someone actually made some weird furniture as to the vague odd shapes they were before and I’ve organised the UVs into one neat set so. I’ll be refining the textures up further later when I’ve got more assets done but its good for a Start.

A rough-and-ready part result of my final MA handin. Mixed feelings on this one, so I’m going back to refining other projects for my actual portfolio

My day has consisted of basic maths exercises and art nouveau smoke studues bc I gave in my final work on Friday and now I do Whatever I want. Which is maths and art. Ill upload a bit of my project later

Some sketches I did this morning! Going off to greece tomorrow, I’m in the mood

So this is what I’ve been working on over the last couple of weeks, it’s intended to be a sculpture in the environment I’m making for my fmp. Might still tweak the octopus legs and crocodile tail a liiittle more but I’m basically done with the forms. I wanted it to be more obvious that the boobs of the octo character are kind of the ‘eyes’ of the octopus, but... I didnt really manage to make that happen. Once I’ve finished, I’ll upload it on sketchfab.

So this is my first attempt at zbrush. Im fairly pleased with it

starting with zbrush no.2 (:

so here’s a video of last trimester’s project but like, tidied up a bit this past week for the showcase today. I’ve improved a lot since I made most of this, but it has a couple of things I’m still proud of so. here you go. Here’s to making a better project for my upcoming trimester.
